They got the punctuation wrong on number 12. Commas, periods, and exclamation points always come before the “end quote.” Question marks come before the end quote when the quote it’s self is a question.

In Encino California and Barbara Hale came in and locked the keys in her car so her husband came to help and gave me an autograph picture of. They were very nice as well.
